Question

Chris has a six sided die. Create a sample

space of possible outcomes for rolling a number. Is this simple or compound event

Answer 1

Sample space: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Simple event

Explanation:

Sample space is a list of all the possible outcomes.

This is a simple event because you are only doing one event, such as rolling a die.

A compound event would be multiple simple events, such as flipping a coin and choosing a marble from a bag.
